Approximations of variances and covariances for order statistics from the standard extreme value distribution

PirouziFard, MirNabi LU and Holmquist, Björn LU orcid (2008) In Communications in Statistics: Simulation and Computation 37(8). p.1500-1506
Abstract
We consider simple approximations of variances and covariances for order statistics from the standard extreme value distribution. Exact values and simulation results of the variances and covariances for certain sample sizes are used to determine the validity of the suggested approximations.
